Air Nippon regrets the threatened 24 hour strike on February 1 announced by its pilot unions and is continuing urgent negotiations with the unions concerned to avert industrial action and the disruption to passenger services it will cause.

Should the unnecessary strike go ahead, ANA will do everything possible to minimize the impact on passengers and services. No international flights will be affected. However domestic flights could regrettably be subject to cancellation and/or delay.

Passengers intending to take ANA domestic flights on February 1 are kindly requested check the status of their flights with the ANA Reservations Center (0570-029-709[Charged]), on ANA SKY WEB (www.ana.co.jp/eng) .

Air Nippon extend sincere apologies for the inconvenience this will cause to customers and appreciate their understanding and patience.
